Page move
I'm moving this page to Umami because Umami is the much more commonly used spelling. It gets 23,200 google hits and Umame gets only 917 [1] Nohat 02:11, 2004 Mar 22 (UTC)
It also doesn't say much for the spelling "umame" for the fact that 8 of the top 10 google hits for it are Wikipedia or Wikipedia mirrors. [2] Nohat 03:56, 2004 Mar 22 (UTC)
Huitlacoche is umami?
What can you tell me in view of [3]? --kmath (talk) 23:01, 11 February 2012 (UTC) ref: Huitlacoche
No translation?
"umami has no translation"
But the lead paragraph mentions its translation ("savoriness").
In fact, why isn't the main title of this English Wikipedia page "Savoriness"?

- “Savoriness” is an attempt to translate “umami”. It’s not a good translation. The meaning of “savory” is much broader than “umami” and in general is not used synonymously. Strebe (talk) 17:06, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
